William Shakespeare - Shall I compare thee to a summers day. (Sonnet 18‪)‬ I've got a little black book (@Occams_Beard)

    • Artes escénicas

Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
 Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
 And summer's lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm'd;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance, or nature's changing course, untrimm'd;
 But thy eternal summer shall not fade
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st;
 Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade,
 When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st;
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
